TIFF Cinematheque is a world-renowned screening programme devoted to the presentation, understanding and appreciation of Canadian and international cinema through carefully curated programming. It features acclaimed director's retrospectives, national and regional spotlights, experimental and avant-garde cinema, exclusive engagements of classic films, including many new and rare archival prints. We're committed to championing the history and culture of cinema by unearthing buried areas of film history and by giving visibility to new directions in cinema.

Our free showcase of the best in Canadian cinema honours the late Lindalee Tracey, screens the much-demanded Can-con classic Amanita Pestilens, and pays tribute to the great Canadian film scholar Peter Harcourt.
